That set-up is insane. Awesome. Create some kind of clamping system so you piece doesnt move and you will crazy results. I am building the same set up. I even use the same router. Get a patent, sell the plans. Rock out!
Yeah, I have been giving thought to some system to hold the smaller pieces in place. As for the Patent, not sure it qualifies as something new when I just used parts available on the internet. Who knows.
If you find your burning your bits, you may want to look at your router speed. Usually 2" bits need ro run between 16,000 & 18,000 rpms. I ran into the same problem and lowered my speed. You have Cool set-up though, thinking about doing something similar for my shop!
I have one of the red one what you show. It was burning the material right from the beginning, not mater the speed. It came with an extension which was not true straight and was creating a very bad vibration. I don't use it anymore.
You’ll get a better finish with less sanding if you only cut on the push stroke half the width of the bit. Your spinning the bit about twice as fast as a bit that size should be spun. Love your sled
Yeah, this was a very early video. I do only go one direction now. I did not see anything about bit speed on the package but that doesn't mean anything. I will try it at lower speed to see what that does. Thanks for the info
I bought a flattening bit like the one you replaced. First time I tried it the vibration loosened screws in the router bottom plate and nearly came out of my hand. Did you experience the same thing with the first bit?

thanks. it may have been the speed but it was a "REALLY" cheap bit. This new bit is great for sure. Thanks.
